King Kohli has truly been back. He is the leading runscorer of the tournament already. Virat Kohli after winning single-handedly against Pakistan has contributed well with useful knocks in the recent matches. Virat Kohli has now achieved another rare milestone in the match against Bangladesh.
Virat Kohli surpassed Mahela Jayawardene’s 1016 T20 runs and became the all-time highest run-getter in T20 World Cups. King Kohli has a staggering run rate of over 80 and a strike rate of over 130. This is Virat Kohli’s sixth T20 World Cup. While Jayawardene took 31 innings to reach the mark, Virat Kohli crossed it in just 23 innings albeit with a lesser strike rate. Rohit Sharma is the next Indian with 921 runs in the T20 World Cups.
Virat Kohli is also approaching 4,000 runs in T20 Internationals and if he achieves this, become the first player to cross the mark.
